INFM 171 Research Guide

This is the library guide for your INFM 171 course. Its purpose is to help you identify useful resources to complete the paper assignment. If you have any questions about these resources or need help finding further information, please contact Carmichael Library.

Research can take several days, even weeks, to complete and if you can't remember what you've already done, you can find yourself repeating steps you've already taken.  You don't want to feel like you're always starting over!!

A research log can help you remember where you have looked before and where you need to look.  Feel free to print this document out as many times as you need, or save a copy on your computer and use it electronically. 

This is just one example of a research log, as you develop your own skills and ways of collecting data, you'll likely develop your own log.
